Here's an interesting maneuver at Box1

We start off with a bird in the nest box.  I'm not sure whether it's male or female. 

It appears to be leaving the box, but doesn't leave go of it ...

S ... but swivels round ...

 ... and has a look around instead. 

In Box2, we have another visitor.  He looks male judging by the condition of his head feathers. 

Yes - definitely male. 

Just to prove I'm right, the female follows him inside the box. 

Of course, he immediately starts to leave. 

Away he goes!
